Mandatory Scuba Tank Inspection

The SSI Decompression Diving Specialty course teaches you how to dive beyond the no-decompression limits. You’ll learn to plan and execute dives to a maximum depth of 40 meters with limited decompression using your recreational diving equipment and a single tank. You’ll learn and practice how to effectively use the functions of your dive computer, such as gas switching or gas integration, as well as remaining air time and ascent time. Using these computer functions will quickly become second nature to you, allowing you to conduct safe limited-decompression dives without spending hours planning each dive. Upon completion of the course, you’ll receive the SSI Decompression Diving Specialty certification, allowing you to explore breathtaking deep dive sites or large wrecks without being limited by no-decompression limits. Your opportunities to take your diving adventures to the next level have just increased!

Experience and enjoy the beautiful dive sites of the Red Sea with us during a 7 day liveaboard on the Ocean Windows ST. Johns & Elba Reef Tour St. Johns is located in the southernmost part of the Red Sea near the Sudanese border. It is a group of countless small reefs, all very lush with coral, each a little different from the next. Here you can encounter pretty much all the inhabitants of the Red Sea: from sharks to manta rays, dolphins and turtles to the endangered bumphead parrotfish. At Elba Reef, get ready to explore the area, which has remained untouched and has never seen mass diving tourism before. Technically in the northern part of Sudan, on the border with Egypt, the area features three reefs that we call the Elba region. Huge coral fans can be found on the edge of the plateau. It is not uncommon to see some large pelagic fish here, such as gray reef sharks and even hammerheads.

As this dive is quite demanding, the basic requirements are: at least 50 logged dives at this depth and mastery of the dry suit. Are you in? CHF 59.-
